yosemite trip cont. and moving update

Sunday morning after breakfast and coffee we planned a hike up to Yosemite falls..

bidding adieu to our lil freezing cold tent 
& the opposite view, from our tent with the granite cliffs. every view in the park was unbelievable
starting the hike.. Eddie & the forest
 & me with Half Dome in the background 
so our our bus driver, the one that took us to the ski slopes, said that on this rock face is Abraham Lincoln's profile... see it? bottom left in the picture. I think it looks more like the moon sliver profile face dude... like this
 "come along, explorers!" what movie?
 photo at the bottom of yosemite falls
 sweet view of half dome
 The falls and half dome.

 leaving the park!
So long, farewell! 

that wraps up our Yosemite weekend! 
The movers were here all day Tuesday and we have been sleeping on our air mattress and have begun the living-out-of-the-suitcase dream! The road trip to Texas begins on Monday and in the mean time we are patching up those pesky holes in our wall and doing one last deep clean now that all the furniture is gone. 

happy friday everyone!

Yosemite trip and some boxed wine

We had a wonderful weekend in Yosemite and I already want to plan another trip back. Luckily they had some snow up there so Saturday we got to ski all day at Badger Pass (ca's oldest ski resort)! It was nice to not have to spend half the day in line at the lift like at some of the resorts in Tahoe. (don't get me wrong, I lovvve Tahoe and the all the ski options there but last time we were stuck in line/on lifts more than we were skiing)

the drive in... my redneck bf. 
 beautiful day driving. this is the San Luis Reservoir
 just getting to the park at night.. Clear skies and the moon!
This is where we stayed. It's basically a glorified tent. Apparently booking your trip 3 days before your trip leaves you with few options..... This I wouldn't mind normally, but normally it's not 18* under the canvas roof of where I rest my head. but nothing a few coors lights won't help!
I call this... where'd your ass go?
on the way to ski :)
after skiing we wanted to check out the "El Captain" rock.. every February this occurs when the sun goes down and hits Horsetail Falls. It's supposed to look like lava.. this is the picture I got but it was somewhat cloudy this night. Other pictures of it look way more awesome. like this & this
after sundown we got a deck of cards, pizza and some beer and headed to the lodge (where there was a fire place, thank god) and had a super intensely competitive nice relaxing game of cards. 

Sunday we hiked around, I'll save that for another post. my target wine cube is calling. what? it's only 11.99! for the amount of 2 bottles... it's award winning! don't act like you've never had wine from a box....

**ps- just saw Kacie B on Ellen. love that pink dress.. anyone know where she got it?? you can't tell in the pic but the back is all open. lovvee. 

ok. bye!

hello again blogland.

hello all!

my blog//life is about to undergo lots of changes.. we are moving from our great lil home in Cali a week from today! ((hence the name change)) I have so much I need to update on life and this time I'm really gonna try to stay on top of it. it's so nice to have entries to look back on and clearly I slacked in 2011. here's to 2012 being a better blog year.

and since this was the plainest shortest post ever, hows about a picture?!
go noles!
